Once Upon A Time by Marylyle Rogers

Here comes another Throwback Thursday! This book is a historical fantasy- I feel like you don’t get too many of those! Please excuse the horribly distorted image- apparently this isn’t a very popular book and we only have one, very old, edition to go off of.

Book Blurb:

“A lovely lady fell asleep in a charmed ring of flowers and dreamed of Comlan, king of the fairy realm. She spent a few magical hours by his side, enjoying the company of the handsome king whose golden hair and green eyes could turn the head of any mortal maid… and whose charming attentions captured her heart.

But the year is 1850, and Amy Danton knows better than to believe in fairy tales.  However wonderful Comlan seems, he is nothing but a figment of her imagination, a dream to bel eft behind in Ireland when she goes to London to prepare for the marriage her parents have arranged. but any mortal suitor pales in comparison to the unearthly delight of Comlan.

Then, across a crowded ballroom, she sees the man of her dreams.  Their eyes meet, and she dares to hope that her fairy tale will end happily ever after… until she learns why Comlan has come to her world, and of the very mortal danger that threatens their enchanted love”
